Aolserver beta10, openacs4.6.3, postgresql 7.3.4, nspostgres 4beta1.

I've been able to compile everything I need except for nspostgres.  I've been messing with it for a while, I've searched all the docs I can find, but I don't know enough to troubleshoot why it isn't working.

I'd appreciate any help, or even a link to a precompiled version.  Thanks ahead of time.

Here is the output of running make:

make: *** [nspostgres.so] Error 1

i've been messing with this for so long...  THANKS!

I hope to God someone picks this reply up in "new responses." I've been trying to get nspostgres to compile and I can't. I did the MODLIBS hack mentioned above (since I'm using AOLserver 4).

#MODLIBS  = -L$(PGLIB) -lpq
MODLIBS  = -L$(PGLIB) -lpq -lnsdb

Anyway when I run:
# make INST=/usr/local/aolserver/ POSTGRES=/usr/local/pgsql ACS=1

I get a bunch of errors like below (this isn't the top of the errors unfortunately PuTTY's buffer for copy/paste craps out):

I'm on Red Hat 7.3 posgresql 7.4 and aolserver 4.

I did compile Postgres with OpenSSL support.  Here's the configure line I used:

./configure --with-includes=/sw/include --with-libs=/sw/lib --with-openssl --with-python --with-perl

I tried adding the line you suggested.  This time, I got the following error when I tried to compile nspostgres:

When compiling nspostgres (and after fixing some other bugs, like -lnsdb flag),
/usr/local/src/aolserver45/nspostgres# make POSTGRES=$PG ACS=1 NSHOME=${NS}
I'm getting that error:

ar rv libnspostgres.a

I've also tried:

make: *** [install-dll] Error 1

/usr/local/src/aolserver45/nspostgres#

But can't fix that.

I added to the build system in aolserver nspostgres...

I added POSTGRESQL = SEPARATELY PGLIB = /some/path/lib PGINC = /some/where/include

And, POSTGRESQL = PG_CONFIG (in which case pg_config is the first one found in the $PATH)

And, POSTGRESQL = PG_CONFIG PG_CONFIG = /usr/some/where/bin/pg_config (so you can select which of many postgreses you want)

Read the Makefile, read the README... and finally, I ask a favor:

If you are having any problems compiling nspostgres with my buildtime extensions and you have not altered files, I'd be interested in seeing what your issue is so I can try to correct it.

Thanks

Just checking in... did you get nspostgres going?
